_ Enjoying yourselves?
_ Great. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Well, I'd like to honor someone now who's really special, special for me.
You know, all of us _ probably have someone in their life,
someone in our lives who we think of as unsung heroes.
_ _ Someone who's just really there when we need them
or someone who's supported us and given us support exactly when we need them,
when we need it.
_ _ And I want to _ dedicate this next song to those unsung heroes in your lives
and also the unsung hero in my life that I'd like to _ tell you about.
It's a gentleman named Elliot Lott in the audience.
Where are you, Elliot?
_ All right. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Well, I'm about to embarrass you.
_ _ _ You know, Elliot's been my mentor.
He's really been a wise sage for me.
He's like an elder brother, kind of father,
and _ _ _ really is very responsible for me being on this stage tonight. _ _ _
_ _ _ Many _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ of you probably don't know, but when I left Supertramp,
it was really because I _ needed_
The music business had become a little much for me,
and I really was longing for a more simple life.
And I left Los Angeles and I moved to Northern California,
and I had two small babies I had to raise as well.
So I kind of entered a new phase in my life,
and I got away from the industry for about 15, almost 20 years.
And when I came back, _ I didn't want to get sucked back into the music industry.
And really it's been because of Elliot's guidance and mentorship
that he's taught me or showed me a way that I can come
_ _ and still be in alignment with my heart doing this on stage tonight
and do it my way rather than get_ _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ They said it for me.

And thank you, and again, this is for all of the unsung heroes in your lives too. _ _ _ _ _

_ _ _ _ _ When I was young it seemed that [Ab] life was [Gm] so wonderful
[Bb] A miracle, [Ab] oh it was [F] beautiful, magical
And all [Cm] the birds in the trees, [Ab] oh they'd be singing [Gm] so happily
_ [Bb] Oh joyfully, [Ab]
oh playfully, [F] watching me _ _
But [Cm] then they sent me away to [Ab] teach me how to [Gm] be sensible
_ _ [Bb] _ Logical, [Ab] oh responsible, [A] practical
_ [Cm] And they showed me a world that [Ab] I could be [Gm] so dependable
[Bb] Oh clinical, [Ab] how intellectual, [A] cynical
_ _ _ There [Eb] are times when all the world's [Cm] asleep
_ But questions run too deep [Ab] _ for such a [Db] simple man
_ _ [Bbm] Won't [Db] _ [Eb] you _ please, please tell me what you've [Cm] learned
_ I know it sounds _ absurd, just tell me who [Db] I am

[Ab] They'll be calling [Gm] you radical, _ _
[Bb] liberal
_ [Ab] Oh [F] fanatical, criminal
_ [Cm] Won't you sign off your name and [Ab] reflect your meaning
Oh [Gm] receptible, _ [Bb] _ respectable _
